I am strong, I am brave. I am Merida, and I am A PRINCESS
A deleted alternate opening to Brave involved Elinor, pregnant with Merida at the time, beginning work on the tapestry.
It’s finally official! Thanks to capturingmagicalmemories.com for the info! Merida’s coronation is on the 11th of May!
Special thanks to Spark-of-Inspiration for the heads up! How exciting! Who will be there for this wonderful event?
FREAKING OUT. This is so exciting! Merida, FINALLY a Princess, officially. She would have been the Princess that I would have truly been upset about if she didn’t officially make the ‘royal court.’ EEEE. Happiness.
Guess
who
will
BE THERE
I WILL
Recently I’ve come across some official Merida images for the Disney Princess lineup . Currently looks like she’ll get the same sparkle treatment as the others with added off-the-shoulder dress and some mascara. Another sexed-up Disney princess then. Mhmm.
They’re sort of a guilty pleasure though, as an adult I can’t help but enjoy and draw pictures of beautiful people since you know, there’s that whole psychological thing that seeing sexy people makes you feel sexy too (and it really doesn’t matter if they are imaginary princesses or tabloid celebrities because in a way they’re all on that same fantasy Hollywood plane, I’m as likely ever to meet Angelina Jolie as Merida) and on other hand the mum in me is screaming that there is no bloody way I will ever buy any of that merchandise to my kids because they don’t need any more appearance-obsessed pressures added to their future angsty teenage years. /headdesk

In which Merida found Rapunzel’s tower when she was a little girl and kept on visiting after that.
SO CUTE
